Barack Obama: “This jobs bill is fully paid for.”

This idea that any suggestion or criticism that America was anything other than perfect is unpatriotic... is a suggestion that you hate your country.

There’s no doubt that we are going through a period right now of disruption, polarization.

I think when you understand the complexities of America and the contradictions of America, I don’t think it makes you love it less. I think it makes you love it more.

I am very happy to see a ceasefire. And I’m hopeful that it holds.
